"Miaoyin, Brother Meng and I just met and walked together for a while. He is amazing. There are many things I don't understand when I first arrived, but he knows them all when I ask him..."
Zhu Wanqin stepped forward and said with a smile, and wanted to reach out and hold Lin Miaoyin's hand to show affection.
Lin Miaoyin immediately put her hands behind her back and raised her eyebrows, ignoring her embarrassment, "I just caught chicken manure with my hands, so don't touch me."
Zhu Wanqin...
She withdrew her hand somewhat awkwardly, turned her gaze to the man driving the coach, and greeted him with a smile.
The coachman had never spoken to such a young and beautiful city girl. When faced with the white and tender little hand she stretched out, he was so excited that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. He rubbed his hands hard on his clothes, then blushed and shook Zhu Wanqin's hand.
"Hello, comrade, thank you for helping us carry our luggage yesterday. I remember your name is Wang Jiefang, right?" Zhu Wanqin withdrew his hand and said with a smile.
Wang Jiefang became even more excited, his face flushed red, and he didn't know what to say. He could only scratch his head and smile foolishly. He didn't notice the subtle hint of disgust on Zhu Wanqin's face.
Lin Miaoyin was looking at what Meng Yuanzheng was carrying. It was wrapped in cloth and couldn't be seen clearly. She looked unhappy, "What are you carrying?"
Meng Yuanzheng said, "I'll tell you when I get back."
Lin Miaoyin looked at him and then at the things, "Aren't you using this as a gift?"
Meng Yuanzheng showed a puzzled look, "No."
If it wasn't a gift, then he could take it home. She could get some benefit anyway. Lin Miaoyin felt better, but still said unhappily, "Get in the car, go home! Look at you. You got beaten yesterday, and you're showing off today. Didn't you go to the clinic this morning?"
"The doctor said it was nothing serious. He gave me some medicine for the abrasions and came back." Meng Yuanzheng answered honestly.
"Come back? Where did you go back to? Back to the commune? You don't even recognize the way home?" Lin Miaoyin held back her anger. This guy had obviously gone to the black market and traveled together with Zhu Wanqin. I would have thought they were a couple.
First, he is a married man, and staying away from other women is a basic requirement. Second, if he spends more time with the heroine and falls in love with her, wouldn’t the ending of the original work be repeated?
She wants to divorce him now, but divorce seems impossible at the moment, so she can only make do with it. If he goes out to flirt with girls now, outsiders will only laugh at her.
Since he couldn't get a divorce, and he happened to have forgotten what happened in the past, it would be right to stay away from the heroine and change the original ending. But he was so good. I warned him to stay away, but he came back within a few hours.
"Miaoyin, don't blame him. If you want to scold someone, scold me." Zhu Wanqin walked over and stood in front of Meng Yuanzheng.
Lin Miaoyin decided that she couldn't give Zhu Wanqin a good face and it was right to break off relations with her and stop having any contact with her.
"Is it anyone's business if I scold my man?" She glanced at Zhu Wanqin, ignoring the surprised and aggrieved look in her eyes. She patted the fence of the oxcart with her hand and said threateningly, "Meng Yuanzheng? Huh?"
Then Zhu Wanqin thought that Meng Yuanzheng, who would quarrel with Lin Miaoyin in public, very obediently put the things on the cart and sat on it with his hands.
She was stunned. What is this thing? Wasn't it a gift for her?
She always thought that Meng Yuanzheng would send her back and give her the things, but as soon as Lin Miaoyin showed up, the things were taken away?
She looked at Meng Yuanzheng, but Meng Yuanzheng didn't look at her. The only response she got was Lin Miaoyin's fake greeting, "Oh, look, this car has no room after putting the team's stuff and the two of us. I'll have to ask you to walk back, Zhu Zhiqing."
Zhu Wanqin smiled stiffly as she watched the ox cart clang away. She clenched her hands, unable to understand why Lin Miaoyin was still the rude and impolite woman, but Meng Yuanzheng was no longer the man who only had eyes for her and would run over to show his affection whenever he saw her.
What went wrong?
The ox cart stopped by the roadside and the two got off. Meng Yuanzheng followed her into the house carrying the things in his hand. Lin Miaoyin threw the keys on the table and sat down. Seeing Meng Yuanzheng standing at the door with the look of a trained young wife, she barely held back her laughter and spoke in a fierce manner.
"What are you standing at the door for? Come in."
Meng Yuanzheng carried the things, put them on the table, and stood in front of her. She glanced at the stool opposite and said, "Sit down."
Go over and sit down obediently.
"Tell me, where did you buy it?" she asked.
"Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
"Stop talking nonsense. I went to the supply and marketing cooperative this morning. There was not much hair left, and I didn't see you. Besides, you didn't have a ticket, so how did you buy it?"
“…”
Seeing his silence, Lin Miaoyin sneered, stood up, and unwrapped the cloth bag unceremoniously, "Let me see what you bought."
A large piece of pork belly, a packet of seasonings, a pack of eggs wrapped in multiple layers of soft cloth, and a large bag of flour.
Even though Lin Miaoyin is a modern person, she was still frightened. If she used tickets to buy these things, it would probably cost the family several months' expenses.
She quickly went to close the gate, then came back and pointed at the things and asked, "To be honest, I know you went to the black market, but where did you get so much money?"
Pork in the supply and marketing cooperative costs 50 cents per pound, but on the black market it costs more than one dollar. This piece of meat weighs at least three or four pounds, not to mention the eggs and flour.
Meng Yuanzheng answered the question irrelevantly, "Don't you want to eat meat?"
"I'm asking where you got the money from?" She slammed the table.
"I sold something for it."
"What did you sell?"
"clothing."
“…”
Why is it so sad to sell clothes for meat?
Lin Miaoyin sat back on the stool and asked seriously, "Why did you tell me not to go to the black market last night, but you went there today? How did you find the black market?"
Meng Yuanzheng smiled faintly and stretched out his wrist, revealing the watch that Lin Miaoyin had seen yesterday.
She looked at his watch and then at his attire and realized that he was pretending to be a rich man so that business would naturally come to him.
The butchers knew that those who could afford to buy expensive meat must be wealthy, so when they saw such people they would take the initiative to approach and strike up a conversation with them.
"You don't understand the market. It's dangerous to go there." He withdrew his hand.
"So you're doing this for my own good?" She raised her eyebrows.
"Um."
"Don't look down on me, I know more than you do." After all, she was from the 21st century.
Meng Yuanzheng didn't say anything, his eyes revealed the meaning of "You can talk, I won't expose it."
Forget it, I won’t bother with him. I’ll just be nice to him since he’s willing to share his meat with me, Lin Miaoyin convinced herself.
"It's hot now, and there's still a snake that I haven't eaten. Should I put the meat in the well to keep it cool?"
"Um."
"What do you want to eat? I'll make it."
"You decide. I'll eat whatever you cook."
Ouch, Lin Miaoyin's heart softened. Is this guy really the villain? How come you are so well behaved?
She reached out to take the meat, but Meng Yuanzheng suddenly said, "Wait."
She paused in confusion.
“You just said you caught some chicken shit?”
The author has something to say: Meng Yuanzheng: You caught chicken manure, don’t touch my meat!
Lin Miaoyin: Say one more thing? Then I'll touch your face with my hands!
I have already revealed the matter about Zhu Wanqin in the copy, I believe everyone can see it at a glance, hehe~
